History

Kaizuka Station traces its origin to a Nōka-ura signal stop set up on 4 February 1935. It was promoted to a full Nishitetsu station as Nishitetsu Tatara on 20 April 1950, renamed Keirinjō-mae on 5 March 1954 after a newly opened velodrome, and renamed again to Kaizuka on 1 November 1962 when the Fukuoka Velodrome shut. On 12 November 1986 the Fukuoka City Subway's Hakozaki Line opened with Kaizuka as its terminus, transforming the site into a Nishitetsu-subway interchange. Each operator has its own at-grade island platform, and the two ticket gates face each other so that passengers can change between the lines without steps. Station numbering H07 for the subway came in 2011 and NK01 for Nishitetsu in 2017.

Notes

The station's subway logo is a brown conch — the kanji 貝 in Kaizuka means seashell, and the spiral represents a junction between transport modes.
